[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 176502, member: 12578"] I think you need to look at the other aspects of your patient, as Daisy says the glucose tolerance test only shows that he is diabetic. Is there a record of recent unexplained weight loss, polyuria/dipsia? Has his blood been tested for the presence of ketones etc. Even without those though the person may still have T1 see [url=http://diabetes.diabetesjournals.org/content/50/2/470.full.pdf+html]http://diabetes.diabetesjournals.org/co ... l.pdf+html[/url] Can you order C Peptide and antibody tests? It really isn't easy. It's no wonder people are often misdiagnosed. [/QUOTE]
